Michael Beasley once again proved he’s proved all about getting buckets during his bigs Knicks debut.
He’s only played one minute tonight, but a whole lot happened during those 60 seconds of action. He got himself a bucket, obviously, before things took a turn for the worse with Russell Westbrook Zaza’ing him on a closeout:

A nasty sprained ankle for sure, but that didn’t stop Beasley from calling for the ball on the Knicks’ next offensive possession:

And that was it for Beasley’s Knicks debut. He was helped off court and is reportedly out for the rest of the game with a sprained ankle. What a ride.
